I don't know why but every time I use bar soap on my dreads (dr. bronners, maylees, knotty boy) I feel a thin film over my scalp. I don't know if that's just the formula of the dread soaps I was using or the fact that it's in a bar form but I've had to use all of those to wash my body as my scalp was absolutely not having it.

That's awesome! You think she'll be making a slightly more conditioning liquid shampoo too? as my dreads are over a year and a half old and quite dry

yea I wouldn't be surprised if it had that microcrystaline wax in it. weird how they sneak that ingredient in everything. It better not be in there natural shampoo cause I'm giving that a try! I generally stay away from them too but I just can't find another liquid soap I like.

Yea cause 99% of people don't actually know what dandruff is. Dandruff can occur on a scalp that's too dry but also on a scalp that's too oily so it isn't the same thing as just having a dry scalp. My close friend who's a hair expert told me that it's one of the most common misconceptions about hair, if someone actually had dandruff they would be rushing off to the doctor to find out what the fucks wrong with their head. That shit is all chemicals though basically no readable ingredients so for that reason I would try to find an alternative but you were just asking how well it actually cleans, so for that I gotta say it works well for me. It's drying because it's supposed to be drying as it's made for new dreads that need to be dry to start dreading I guess some people get flakes from it, not me though. It would be impossible though for just the use of a shampoo to cause dandruff. But yea just use what works for you

I disagree I've used many different dread shampoos and I surprisingly think dhhq is one of the best. It is all chemicals though. I'm ordering there new organic dread soap and Imma see what I think of that. But no as far as the shampoo goes it does it's job, it keeps your dreads dry, it washes out really easily, I like it. I would recommend adding a lil tea tree and rosemary cause it will dry your scalp. SE I believe what you're thinking is dandruff is probably actually dry flaky scalp, people confuse dandruff and dry scalp all the time dandruff in fact is actually a seborrheic scurf that forms on the scalp and comes off in flakes, very few people actually develop dandruff but many people get dry scalp.

How to use Aloe?
Dread Maintenance
Hey everyone I really want to buy some aloe but all the aloe I can find has other ingredients in it, so I figured I'd buy a plant but how would I actually get the aloe out of it once I have it? And can I mix it with jojoba oil in my hands or something?
